Welcome to the Sunderland website for children who are disabled, have special educational needs, or a long term health condition.


Welcome to the Real Issues website for Sunderland. This site is designed for children and young people living in Sunderland who are disabled, have special educational needs, or a long term health condition, and their families. It will also be a useful resource for the professionals working with them.
